Local knowledge for Tallinn

Where to stay

Most hostels cluster in or just outside the Old Town walls, with a growing number in Kalamaja, the wooden-house neighborhood a short walk northwest near Telliskivi Creative City. Kalamaja tends to be quieter and slightly cheaper, while Old Town puts you steps from everything at the cost of street noise and tourist-priced restaurants.

Getting around

  • Walk two minutes outside the Old Town walls to eat. Restaurants inside, especially around Raekoja plats, charge roughly double for the same food you can get in Kalamaja or along Telliskivi.
  • Tallinn's public transit day pass costs a few euros and covers trams and buses across the city. Buy it at any Rimi supermarket or R-kiosk rather than paying per ride at the stop.
  • Balti jaam market, behind the main train station, is the cheapest place in the city for a hot meal or fresh produce. It opens early and winds down by early afternoon, so go before lunch.

When to go

Hostels fill fast and rates climb in June, July, and August when the Old Town draws heavy cruise traffic. The best prices appear November through February, with a short spike around the Christmas market in December.
